Leeds United v Nottingham Forest Betting Form?

Tonight’s clash between Leeds and Forest could have huge ramifications in the race to avoid relegation and it is United who head into it as favourites. Since suffering a 3-1 reverse at the City Ground, Leeds have found a bit of resolve with only Newcastle and Arsenal claiming three points against them since the beginning of December.

Odds of 6/1 in our Premier League relegation market suggest United have enough about them to stay up, but tonight’s clash is one they will have had marked in the calendar for a while and they could really do with turning some draws into wins.

In the absence of Lukas Nmecha, Dominic Calvert-Lewin will once again lead the line, whilst Jaka Bijol will return to the back three. Dan James is available for selection after a long injury lay off, but Anton Stach (who has three goals to his name from midfield) will miss the next couple of matches.

LEEDS UNITED RECENT FORM

LOSS: Leeds 0-4 Arsenal. Saturday 31^st January 2026.
DRAW: Everton 1-1 Leeds. Monday 26^th January 2026.
WIN: Leeds 1-0 Fulham. Saturday 17^th January 2026.

Forest are 15/2 in our Premier League relegation odds and a win tonight would be massive for Sean Dyche’s side. They drew 1-1 at home last weekend against Crystal Palace, with the Londoners equalising from the spot after Neco Williams handballed on the line (think Luos Suarez at the 2010 World Cup) and the Welshman will miss tonight’s clash through suspension.

Tonight’s visitors are on a four game unbeaten run in the league and they could well hand a debut to recent signing Stefan Ortega, with the goalkeeper switching Manchester City for the City Ground.

NOTTINGHAM FOREST RECENT FORM

DRAW: Nottingham Forest 1-1 Crystal Palace. Sunday 1^st February 2026.

What Are The Best Odds On Leeds United v Nottingham Forest?

United are the favourites going into tonight’s match, but a price of 6/5 shows that there is not much between the two sides on paper, with the pair separated by goals scored. Home advantage could be key for the Whites and Daniel Farke’s side have saved some of their best performances for under the lights in West Yorkshire. Chelsea, Crystal Palace, and Everton have all been beaten in night games at Elland Road this season and Farke will be hoping to add another scalp.

Forest are 12/5 to win this evening, with the draw at 23/10 and you can back the visitors on our 2 Up market at 9/4.

In the other markets, BTTS has landed in seven of Leeds’ last ten matches and you can back both sides to score at 4/5, with over 2.5 goals priced at 21/20.

Morgan Gibbs-White is one of the main dangermen for Forest and he is 3/1 to score anytime, as he did when the pair met on the banks of the Trent back in November. Dominic Calvert-Lewin barely got a sniff in Leeds’ recent defeat against Arsenal and he will be hoping for a more productive evening tonight. The former Everton man is 15/4 to score first and 5/4 to score anytime.
